Help! I've direct mailed in North DFW and don't know what to do!

[Arun Chandra]

Hello all,

Last month I started a mission to get my a** in gear and acquire more rentals in North DFW. I purchased a SFR rental in North DFW back in 2014 but that was years ago and doesn't count in my book.

So I bought a domain, built a website, created a email account, vumber phone number, local UPS mailbox, build a FB-Google-Yelp page, setup Podio, designed a post card, and this past week I had the post cards sent out via yellowletters.com.

I know I have the skills: sales, marketing, customer relationship building, deal analysis, negotiating, and bla bla bla to get the deals done. But after talking to my buddy that was going to be the boots on the ground it sounds like I need a lot more help. 

My buddy is local and has his RE license, but after I sent out the post cards it doesn't sound like he is interested in being the boots on the ground anymore. He just wants the retail sales leads so he can continue being a Realtor, which is fine, but leaves me scrambling for help.

After talking to another wholesaler he told me I need to have a title company lined up so thats another issue. Ahhh.. ok I just needed to get all of that out. 

Can anyone recommend someone looking to get into wholesaling that knows how to estimate rehab costs and has a North DFW MLS access?

I already have the marketing strategy in place, so not looking for help in that arena.

For he's gonna need you just as much as you need him... for referral purposes. I'm new and you just gave me a small blueprint even though you didn't know it. What i can only suggest is that you call up agents and wholesalers in the areas who may be interested in joint ventures (that's what I'm doing) and get a JV contract for each property YOU get under contract (cowholesaling). You guys just split the profit.
